Just bought a 1995 Hunter 35.5 and had the engine quit during the delivery to my home port. Changed the fuel filters (which were clean) and the engine ran for an additonal 4-5 hours and then quit. This time I traced it to a blocked intake pickup line. I suspect algae in the tank is blocking the fuel tank pickup screen because it can be cleared by unhooking the filter intake line and blowing the line out to the tank. Any advice on the best way to remove the screen on the fuel tank intake line? The access to the tank is in the starboard lazarette and the top of the pickup tube is not very accessible.
